Summary: The best gets even better!
Comment: In this revised version of an already excellent book, Deborah Kurata has skillfully fleshed out areas that were sparse in the original, and has added very useful information both on OO development and VB 5.0's new features. Ms. Kurata has an enviable ability to focus on critical development issues, explain them clearly and succinctly, and supply very practical examples. Because of this, I would argue that her GUIDS methodology, far from being a waste of time for anyone, is the only OO methodology I've seen that is presented clearly and directly enough to be immediately useful to any programmer. If you're looking for the typical rewrite of the VB manual, skip this book. If you want to finally get your money's worth out of a computer book, buy it. It's the only programming book I've ever actually enjoyed reading (and I've read a LOT of them).

Summary: The best VB book I ever read
Comment: In a very easy and straightforward manner, this book introduces the concepts of Object Oriented Programming and shows how it works in VB5. Deborah Kurata uses the GUIDS methodology, which is simple and very efective in any serious software project. OOP is a BIG time-saver, as it lets you create resusable buildind blocks, that can be compiled and called from any other applications you develop, keeping your code concise and easy to trace.

Summary: A few Unnecessary Chapters
Comment: By chapter 10, i was actually introduced to some real code,and in fact, learned it.
I didn't buy a book on "HOW to program", or "What makes a good program" or "Here's how to name variables", or "Here's how to comment your code" I wanted to learn oop using VB. I would still recomend it, but start at chapter 10 (a few trees could have been saved)
